Please note: 25 March 2005-18 September 2005 There will be an exhibit about German Expressionism (which includes many of the artists that are listed below) at the Groninger Museum, Groningen, The Netherlands:

Van Kirchner tot Kandinsky Duits Expressionisme uit Nederlandse Musea, 1919-1964

Werk van de Duits expressionistische groeperingen Die Bruecker en Der blaue Reiter.  Verder werk Beckmann, Grosz, Kokoschka en Dix.

(From Kirchner to Kandinsky German Expressionism from Dutch Museums, 1919-1964

Work from the German expressionistic group Die Bruecker (The Bridge) en Der blaue Reiter (The Blue Horseman/Rider).  Further work Beckmann, Grosz, Kokoschka and Dix.)

What is Entartete Kunst?  Go here.

 

To mark the 60th anniversary of the liberation of Auschwitz on 27/1/2005, I have compiled a sort of exhibit of all of the artists which were relegated to the Entartete Kunst (Degenerate Art) exhibit, which was visited by 3 million Germans as it traveled around the country in 1937 and 1938.  This was the first great super exhibit that spurred our own record breaking exhibits: the last world record breaker, I believe, was the 2002 Gauguin and van Gogh exhibit at the van Gogh Museum in Amsterdam.

 

I am finding it very interesting to see what degenerate art is and why it is so important to embrace Modern and Avant Garde art: we can see from the past what could become of artists, and their artworks, which come from the wrong culture or ask the wrong questions about the world around them.

 

Firstly however I offer you the original catalogue of the original exhibit, Entartete Kunst, which opened in Muenchen in 1937: actually the "Fuehrer" offers it to you.  (In German with illistrations and prints).

 

It is important to point out that I do not know which particular works by each artist that were shown, however I have tried my best to represent the artists' work and if possible their development.  In rare exceptions, all of the pieces below were created before the exhibit in 1937.  I have done this to best demonstrate the artworks, which were labeled degenerate.

 

Without Artcyclopedia and Wikipedia, I would have been unable to offer this exhibit.  The list of degenerate artists comes from: A Teacher's Guide to the Holocaust.

 

To see the art of which the National Socialists approved you can look at this rather nice website (in German, unfortunate for the native English speaker): http://www.kunst.gymszbad.de/nationalsozialismus/index.htm.  Besides being an extremely fascinating site, it also contains a fascimile of the original catalogue of the Entartete Kunst Ausstellung that opened in Muenchen in 1937.

 

Here, I would like the chance to remember Walter Benjamin (1892-1940):

 

"The logical result of Fascism is the introduction of aesthetics into political

life."

 

"All efforts to render politics aesthetic culminate in one thing: war."

Walter Benjamin. "The Work of Art in the Age of Mechanical Reproduction," 1935. Illuminations: Essays and

Refelections. New York: Harcourt, Brace & World, 1968. p 241.

    Barlach, Ernst

 

Biography

Ernst Barlach, (January 2, 1870 in Wedel, Pinneberg, Germany - October 24, 1938 in Rostock, Germany) was a famous German expressionist sculptor. He also worked as a graphic designer and writer. While he was a supporter of the war in the years leading to World War I, his participation in the war reversed his position, and he is mostly known for his sculptures against the war. This created many conflicts during the rise of the Nazis until most of his works were confiscated as degenerate art.

    Bauer, Rudolf

 

Biography

Rudolf Bauer was an artist whose brief fame was much dependent upon is romantic relationship with New York abstract artist, Hilla Rebay, the founder of the Museum of Non Objective Painting, which was later named the Guggenheim Museum. In Berlin, thanks to the help of Rebay, he had a gallery, which he opened in 1930 but closed in 1932 due to mismanagement.

 

He also unsuccessfully submitted his name as a candidate for the Ministry of Culture during the Nazi Era, although he was not a member.

    Baumeister, Willi

 

Biography:

"From 1905 to 1907 Willi Baumeister completed a training in painting and decorating, which was

likely the source of his lifelong sense of a fitting use of materials, and his enjoyment of

experiment. Admitted in 1906 to the drawing class at the Akademie der bilden den Kunste,

Stuttgart, he became a student in Adolf H1zel's composition class there in 1910. "In 1919-1920,"

Baumeister noted, "I made paintings conceived for an architecture that did not yet exist at the

time. In contrast to Archipenko, I strove not for an isolated, colored relief but began with a

component of architecture, the wall. The result was paintings with actual, raised surfaces, which,

as it were, hesitatingly grew out of the wall, without controverting its laws... I called these

pictures 'wall paintings,' to emphasize the contrast with 'easel paintings'." Many of Baumeister's

wall paintings contain rough-textured passages obtained by adding sand to the paint, a technique

he would continue to use a11 the way down to the late Monturi pictures. Color and form were

treated in accordance with the law of perfect harmony and clarity, for Baumeister's intent was to

expunge all subjectivity from his art. In the early 1930s he recurred to archaic configurations,

which lent his style reminiscences of neolithic cave painting.

Biography

Otto Dix (1891-1969) was a German expressionist and anti-war painter and a veteran of the First World War. His most famous paintings were Metropolis (1928) and a 1932 triptych Trench Warfare.

----

Otto Dix was another expressionist painter whose work was influenced by the experience of World War I. He was appointed professor at the Dresden State Academy, but was dismissed in 1933 when the Nazis came to power. Two hundred sixty of Dix's paintings were removed from German museums in 1937. Many of these were burnt on Goebbels's order. Dix survived on a remote farm until 1945 when he was drafted by the Nazis and then captured by the French and made a prisoner of war. After the war, Dix returned to teaching.

    Feibusch, Hans

 

Biography

Hans  Feibusch, sculptor and muralist was born into a Jewish  family in Frankfurt-on-Main,

Germany. He studied Fine  Art in Italy before becoming a prominent member of several  art

societies in Frankfurt. His early work consisted  of mythological paintings and still- lifes. In 1930

Feibusch  received the German Grand State Prize for Painters, but  in 1933 he had to flee Germany

as a result of the political  climate. He settled in England and became a prolific  muralist of

churches and cathedrals. Between 1938 and  1970 he painted 40 murals included those at St Alban 

the Martyr in London, Chichester Cathedral and Goring  Church in Sussex. Feibusch is considered to

be a remarkable  colourist and his style has matured with time. "I  started working in a new way...I

tried to paint what  I felt as directly as possible. This simplification looks  as if I have gone back in

style but it is only a stripping  of my stylised habits so I may come to the purest most  direct form

and express what I feel". (H Feibusch)

Biography

Lazar Mikhailovitch Lissitsky (also known as El) (November 23, 1890 - December 30, 1941) was one of the main disciples of Kazimir Malevich. Initially following the work of Marc Chagall that tried to recover the Jewish tradition in the city of Vitebsk, Lissitsky felt himself attracted by the artistic procedures of Suprematism and started to experiment with his PROUNs (an acronym for new perspectives on art). Later he was commissioned as a cultural representative in Germany from 1921 on. In Germany he developed his career as a graphic designer with some historically very important works such as the book Dlia Golossa (For the Voice) a collection of poems from Vladimir Mayakovsky, designed with facilities to be read in various situations (the model was a phone index); the book "Die Kunstismen" (The Artisms), together with Jean Arp, an "abbreg" of what were the most important artistic movements at the time.

Biography (Very Good)

Kurt Schwitters (June 20, 1887 - January 8, 1948) was a German painter, who was born in Hanover, Germany. Schwitters participated in the Dada movement during and after World War I. His particular contribution to that group was his Merz works, art pieces built up of found objects into large constructions or even what would later in the 20th century have been called 'installations'. The Sprengel Museum in Hanover has a reconstruction of the most famous of these installations called 'Merzbau' which was a redesign of Schwitters own apartment in Hanover. The original Merzbau was destroyed in an air raid during WW II.
